The article examines the development of advanced digital manufacturing (as outlined in the ‘Made-in-China 2025’ government plan) from the perspective of the changing socio-technical paradigms of production. The analysis focuses on the transformations of value chains and work, based on theories of social shaping of technology, regulation theory and regimes of production. Analytically, the author proposes to distinguish between ‘production-driven’ and ‘distribution-driven’ pathways of manufacturing digitalisation. The transformation of semi-rural industrial areas (‘Taobao villages’, named after China’s largest e-commerce platform Taobao) into mass production clusters for e-commerce is depicted as a paradigmatic model of distribution-driven transformation and as a characteristic Chinese strategy in this field. The article examines the impact on industry supply chains and work, leading to ever-more precarious conditions of employment. Policy recommendations focus on local strategies to stabilise supply chain structures and working conditions, as an alternative to the present top-down approaches to manufacturing modernisation in China.

Promoting the intelligent upgrades of small and medium-sized enterprises is one of the important tasks of implementing “Made in China 2025” in China. As a front runner of nation-level reform, Zhejiang Province has provided much room for innovation and development, along with the emergence of a new type of ecology, accelerated formation of two ecosystems and international cooperation, and a supportive policy environment. Therefore, this paper uses 173 Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) from Zhejiang Province as the research objects, builds a binary selection model, and analyzes the dynamic and constraining mechanism of intelligent upgrades of SMEs with regard to employee qualification, technology, capital, policy environment, and so on. The study finds that: First, among three main industries, manufacturing is the major industry for the intelligent upgrades of SMEs and there are significant demonstration effects and industry heterogeneity. Secondly, the willingness to upgrade intelligently for SMEs is relatively strong. More than half of SMEs that have not intelligently upgraded show willingness to implement intelligent upgrades. Thirdly, factors such as corporate profitability, human capital quality, and industry intelligence level have significantly promoted the intelligent upgrades of SMEs, while the impact of labor cost, capital structure, government subsidies, and other variables are not significant. This conclusion still works after a number of robustness tests. Last but not least, based on the above conclusions, this paper proposes corresponding policy recommendations which are practically beneficial to the development of SMEs in China.

Subject The impact of US tariffs on China's Made In China 2025 industrial policy framework. Significance 'Made in China 2025' has become a byword for US grievances against China's trade and investment policies. US tariffs against Chinese products are primarily aimed not at trimming the bilateral trade deficit, but at forcing China to abandon policies by which it hopes to challenge the US position as the global high-tech leader. As such, the tariffs target the high-tech sectors Beijing seeks to develop. Impacts China will step up efforts to reduce reliance on US suppliers. Washington may press other countries to block Chinese investment or supplies of key components. China will seek greater high-tech cooperation with Russia; Russia will oblige. China may make greater use of cyberattacks in order to obtain advanced US technology.

Smartphone is all about its specification, the more powerful your smartphone is, more expensive it can be. Yet later, China offers a lot of variations with high specification, but also with a cheap price. Smartphone from China is often called ‘scam’ or ‘will be broken easily’, or even ‘not durable’. In this research I want to know either Country Image, Country of Origin, and Brand Image will affect the Purchase Intention or not. It’s not that clear because some people still buy the smartphone made in China.

The importance of entrepreneurship for economic growth and job creation has gained wide acceptance around the world. The Chinese government is dedicated to innovation and entrepreneurship, realizing the critical importance in meeting this dual purpose lies in entrepreneurship education (EE) and its integration across the government, academic and business sectors. This paper outlines the emergence of entrepreneurship and the emerging trends in EE of China by looking at the past and present of China’s economy, education and government policies through a socio-economic-educational perspective. It focuses on Made In China 2025, an important 10-year national plan, that outlines China’s objectives in future economic development, and the future directions for China’s EE. By looking at past and emerging trends this study presents a historical and current picture of EE within China. The socio-economic-educational perspective of this study results in the following observations: the change from government programmed economy to a more open briskness driven economy, the close relationship between China’s reform in economy and education, the impact of government policies and mandates on China’s entrepreneurship education, EE in China, a new facet of China’s education reform, which has moved from education for the elite to the masses, and lastly, Made In China 2025’s call for innovation and reform in educational practices of EE in China. The application of a socio-economic-educational perspective provides for broader and deeper insights into the direction for the further development of EE in China.

Subject The impact of the Wuhan COVID-19 lockdown on China's high-tech development plans. Significance The city of Wuhan -- the origin and epicentre of the COVID-19 epidemic, and target of the country’s longest and most severe lockdown -- plays a significant role in the China’s Made In China 2025 plan to develop indigenous high-tech industries. Impacts Wuhan will suffer long-lasting stigma as the origin of COVID-19, which may affect its ability to compete with other tech hubs for talent. The city’s large fibre-optic sector may in the long run lose out from efforts by customers to diversify their suppliers. Tech firms are likely to be made a priority in government recovery spending. Key people in strategic sectors may have got priority medical treatment, but COVID-19 may still adversely affect the high-tech workforce.

Purpose This study aims to check the impact of consumer ethnocentrism (CE) and animosity on brand image (BI) and brand loyalty (BL) of Indian made cosmetic products in Pakistan and to check the mediation role of product judgment (PJ) related to Indian made cosmetic products in this relationship. Design/methodology/approach In this study, the researcher used quantitative techniques to collect data. Online survey strategy was used for data collection and the technique of purposive sampling was used to select 280 consumers as respondents of said study. SPSS-20 and AMOS-21 were used for data analysis and to test the hypotheses of the study. Findings The results indicate that there is a positive relationship between CE and BL that is the novel result of this study because past studies proved negative relation in CE and BL and there is no direct relationship between CE and BI. The results also indicate that consumer animosity (CA) has a negative impact on BI and BL of Indian made cosmetic products in Pakistan. The results of mediation indicate that PJ is playing partial mediation in this relation. Originality/value This study is for the first time that is conducted in the context of India and Pakistan. Similarly, PJ is tested as a mediator for the first time in the relationship between CE and CA and BI and BL. This study would be beneficial for foreign brands generally and for Indian cosmetic brands specifically. In addition, it may provide help to business students and scholars to further understand and explore these variables in the context of developing countries.

Subject The impact of the China-US trade tariffs on Japan's economy. Significance As trade talks between the United States and China stumble toward a March 1 self-imposed US deadline, US tariffs and Chinese retaliations are influencing global trade patterns. Japan as a major trading nation has much at stake. Impacts Japanese producers are examining relocation options for products now made in China. South-east Asia, not Japan, is the top candidate for supply chain relocation. Mexico also is another candidate for substitute production because of its location and technology skills. If the United States follows up its threat to impose a 25% tariff on its imports of autos and parts this would hit Japan’s auto exports.
